2-(Methylthio)ethyl benzoate (CAS 62157-90-8) is a high-purity analytical reference standard with the molecular formula C7H6O2C3H8OS and a molecular weight of 214.28 g/mol.
Based on its molecular formula C7H6O2C3H8OS, 2-(Methylthio)ethyl benzoate contains a sulfone group, a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system; these features give the compound characteristic absorption bands in UV spectroscopy. The molecular weight of 214.28 g/mol is directly relevant to the identification of the molecular ion in mass spectrometry. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.
